rosie and wanda were both feeling a lot better, having managed some plain chicken and a bit of salad for dinner.  now was time for the once a month event in the compound, game night. thor, valkyrie and carol came down to earth as well as hope and scott joining them. currently, rosie and wanda were trying to look like they hadn't both been violently ill less than 24 hours ago.
"on a scale of 1-10, one being death bed, ten being peak health, how do i look?" wanda and nat both pulled slightly  askew faces looking at the girl. she was wearing her n.y.u sweatshirt and her white pleated skirt, paired with nike socks and doc martens, in an attempt to avoid height jokes nat said they were bound to make, "oh come on guys, first introduction, i even have makeup on, i can't look that close to death"
"you don't, somewhere between a 4 and a 7, depending on the angle", wanda who had managed to get more than enough sleep, looked as good as new whereas rosie, although skin colour having returned to normal, still had dark circles under her eyes.
"i'd say a 5, maybe tie your hair in a bun come her" natasha stood behind rosie, wearing a black dress with a leather jacket over it, and similar shoes but not boots. she pulled the girls mass of hair "you need a trim" into a messy bun near the top of her head, before pulling out pieces to frame her face. "i know, any volunteers" natasha and wanda both shrugged as if to say sure why not but not right this second. wanda was wearing her floral midi skirt and red crop top, she also had on of a grey zip up hoodie she had stolen from steve, still slightly colder than she should be, much like rosie. she paired it with white high top converse.
"definitely a solid 6 now" wanda stated. natasha pulled out her phone to text a group chat

how did we end up in this?
(containing thor, carol, scott, hope, clint, valkyrie, sam and natasha)

nat:guys don't say anything if rosie looks like she has been violently ill in the last 24 hours
she wants to make a good impression

carol: why would she look like shes been violently ill in the last 24 hours

sam:wanda and rosie got food poisoning

nat:and rosie has a bad immune system

sam:and heightened senses

nat:and struggles to sleep more than one hour without nightmares

valkyrie:okay no saying she looks like shit, got it

nat:thank you, she's really nervous

sam: oh and don't mention the pink hair

clint:DEFINITELY DONT MENTION THE PINK

hope: okay, why?

clint:prank by me which rosie wasn't a fan of

nat:because she very PUBLICLY voiced her hatred for the colour due to childhood trauma

scott:childhood trauma?

sam:very traumatic childhood which she mostly shrugs off calmly
try and avoid the topic of family too

carol: anything we should talk about

nat:anything except what we just mentioned, see you all soon x
and science x

and with that natasha put her phone away. "they're here" rosie said, she must've heard the door close, rosie and wandas room being closest to the entrance. rosie took a deep breath before following wanda and i out into the hall. hope and scott were in the hall, carol, thor and valkyrie hadn't arrived yet. rosie internally thanked thor she wouldn't have to introduce herself to everyone at the same time. this was also wandas first time meeting hope and valkyrie. "hope...scott" natasha said offering them both a hug "hey nat" they each said as she hugged them. scott then went up to wanda and hugged her "nice to see you again wanda"
"you too scott" rosie stood slightly to the side, praying nat would introduce her
"hope this is wanda" she said pointing to a brunette similar in height and stature to hope, if not an inch shorter "and this is rosie" nat continued pointing to a pink curly haired girl who seemed short, standing at only 5'4" in her platform docs.
"nice to meet you both, i am hope, known in superhero rings as the wasp" both girls smiled and nodded as hope hugged them both. at this wanda entered rosies mind.

wanda rosie

do you think they're all gonna hug us
i hope not, but probably, especially thor god he gives those big bear hugs
carols a handshake girl, hopefully valkyrie is too

rosie and hope were now both pulling away from their shared hug. rosie smiled up at hope, still an inch or so shorter than her
"its nice to meet you hope"
"its nice to meet you too rosie, oh and this is my fiancé scott" she said gesturing to the brunette man who smiled and also hugged rosie "great to finally meet you rosie"
"you too scott" she said pulling away and going to intertwine her hand with wandas. hope picked up on this "they together?" she questioned "indeed they are" natasha responded smiling "cute, very cute" the group then made there way to join the others and wait for the others. the men stood in long sleeved shirts of various colours and jeans. hope opted to wear smart black  trousers paired with a white ribbed vest top and a striped over sized button up.

rosie couldnt help but think how cool the outfit was " i like your outfit hope" she stated to the brunette "why thank you, i like yours too, do you go to n.y.u"
"i'm starting their in the fall, studying biochemistry"
"oh, have you read the works of hank pym?"
"read it, i have it memorised, which sounds impressive, but isn't, because i have an eidetic memory, but his and his wife's experiments were basically the foundations for anything quantum, i mean shrinking and growing, completely ingenious" hope was practically beaming at this point "that man you are gushing over happens to be my father" rosies jaw dropped. the rest of the group had separated into different conversations "oh my god (rosie didn't want to be seen as weird for saying oh my thor) you helped with his experiments on the quantum realm, wasp jr. i mean wow, wow, wow. it didn't click when you said 'the wasp' i'm not sure how not but like wow, this is so cool, ooo i'm gonna sound like such a fan girl, but will you take a polaroid with me for my wall" hope couldn't possibly be smiling more hearing the sincerity in rosies voice "i would love to take a picture with you" rosie smiled before sprinting to her room impressively quickly and returning not a minute later. "one sec, i'll ask wanda to take it" she said whilst walking over to her and waiting for to finish her conversation. once seeing she was done, she tapped her on the shoulder . "can you take a picture of me and hope?"
"ummm sure" wanda followed rosie back to where hope was sat and took he camera that was handed to her. both women grinned brightly and sincerely as wanda took the picture. "you both look great, well you still look half dead rosie, but other than that great"
"that might be the nicest thing you ever said to me" rosie stated, causing all 3 women to laugh "and i know, but how could i possibly pass up the oppurtunity for a photo with hope pym" she quickly turned to hope "i'm done fangirling now, promise, i did this with dr.banner too" which caused hope to laugh, before turning back to wanda who was smiling at rosie looking so happy to have met hope "i'm gonna go talk to nat, i'll talk to you both later"

natasha was currently stood alone on her phone, carol updating her on there eta 9:30, 10 minutes, as hope walked up to her
"i saw you talking to rosie" natasha stated, turning to face her
"oh my god, i love her" at this comment natashas face lit up "she complimented my outfit, i asked about college, then my dad, then when i said i was his daughter she just started gushing about science and then we took a picture"
"her and wanda have been making this extensive photo wall in their shared room since rosies birthday, more pictures than you'd expect after 4 days, most being them taking random pictures that the person in them knows nothing about"
"i'll definitely speak to her more later"

*knock, knock*

"and that would be thor, valkyrie and carol, i'll get the door" natasha greeted them at the door, before leading them into the main room. thor bear hugged everyone in greeting whilst valkyrie and carol both shook hands. after their hugs and seeing that carol and valkyrie weren't going to hug them, wanda and rosie felt each others muscles unclench. carol and valkyrie shook both of their hands "hi, i'm rosie" rosie said to carol with a sincere smile. carol couldn't help but smile back
"its a pleasure to meet you rosie" she then went on to greet wanda. valkyrie stood infront of rosie her eyes flicking up and down before sticking her hand out "hi, i'm brunnhilde, but please call me valkyrie"
"its very nice to meet you valkyrie, i have to say i'm a fan of your outfit" valkyrie was wearing navy blue tailored pants with an oversized white button up tucked in and a captain marvel hoodie under her arm.
"why thank you rosie" valkyrie was now also smiling after the greeting. she swiftly turned to greet wanda in a similar manner. both females left to talk to nat and hope, leaving wanda and rosie to talk to one another.

"what'd you think of rosie" natasha was very cautious of rosie being well perceived by these women, mostly because she knew rosie would hate to have upset either of them. "that kid has the most infectious smile, feel like i could smile for hours now" carol stated, causing all 4 women to laugh "very true" hope added. and with that they fell into a comfortable conversation until the time had come. game time.
